No TREES besides Campus Roads even after 15 years

POSTED BY paras

IITG is nearly 15 years old  now. The campus is huge with the Departments and Lecture Halls at one end and Hostel at another with the students walking or cycling to and fro evryday taking about 15 mins everytime. We all are aware of the heat in the peak time of afternoon. Now I find it very surprising that with the roads and pavements already in place for several years and with the huge amount of funds from the Government spent on beautification why are there no trees besides most of the roads of IITG? All I see are empty round wooden supports along the roads all over the campus which are replaced by new ones every other month with no trees in them.  Is this futile way of spending the funds all we can expect from the administration?

Just look at the difference in the Campus at IITG and IITB. We can no longer hide behing the excuse of being a new and upcoming IIT being 15 year old and having a estabilished campus (not to mention the green environment in assam).



I am speacially talking about the following roads:
- Between Siang and Academic Complex (via Library building)
- Between SAC to KV Gate
- Between Dihing and Kapili

These, among others, are the most used roads by all students everyday and we are left with no option other than walking directly under the intense sun. It seems niether the Administration nor the Environmental Club, Prakriti secretaries have given a thought to this end. Its time to wake up guys...

  1. Paras I think your voice has been heard by the Administration..they are finally planting trees on roadsides...hope the freshers this year won't face the same problem.

    Cheers
